Reading apfs partition from ssd: Failed to load checkpoint map #73

Hi, I am trying to salvage my wife's data from her Macbook Pro's ssd. I think it has APFS (at least I can't use hfsplus as a mount option and I installed macOS this year... Anyway, I'm getting this error:

freek@home:~/projects/apfs-fuse/build$ sudo ./apfs-fuse /dev/sdd2 ~/mnt
Failed to load checkpoint map
nid 403 xid 4189a NOT FOUND!!!
Unable to get volume!

Do you know what it means? Perhaps it is useful, here is the relevant output of fdisk -l:

Disk /dev/sdd: 223.6 GiB, 240057409536 bytes, 468862128 sectors

Highest regards,

Yeah, it looks like it has apfs on it, otherwise it would complain about a wrong superblock or something ...

Can you try again using -d 255? That way, it will output more diagnostic information.

Other question ... you said it's a MacBook Pro. What model is it exactly?

The problem is, newer MacBook Pro models use hardware encryption, which I haven't figured out yet, and I doubt it is that easy to figure out ...
